If cost is a factor in your wedding budget, consider planning your wedding for a Friday or Sunday. Choosing a day not in high demand can be less expensive and more relaxing, and there are other benefits as well:
- You'll find everyone you must engage for a wedding service more open to negotiation, sometimes reconsidering price or adding extras.
- Vendors will probably cheer your off-day business by doing an extra-attentive job.
- Wedding services can book Saturdays far in advance, but Fridays and Sundays can require less notice. Choosing a Friday or Sunday also allows you to avoid making several calls to numerous vendors, only to hear, "Sorry, we're booked on that date."
- Getting married on alternative days suits the bride who prefers less pressured planning.
- It's more likely that a hotly requested band, emcee, photographer, videographer or caterer will be on hand for the wedding of your dreams.
- Getting treasured guests into town may be easier if extra or early days are options.
- On a Friday, you'll probably have your wedding in the evening, which means that the ceremony is followed immediately by dinner. This means that you will avoid the extra cost and hassle of a one-to-two-hour interim reception or cocktail party. Having the ceremony and reception back to back may ensure more people at the church ceremony.
- The rehearsal dinner could be easier and less costly for a restaurant if it was scheduled on a Thursday as opposed to a Friday night.
